Index Documents into another CFS

You can index documents into another CFS. You might want to do this if you want to perform further processing on them.

To index documents into another CFS

  1. Stop CFS.
  2. Open the CFS configuration file.
  3. In the [Indexing] section, use the IndexerSections parameter to specify the names of the sections in the configuration file that contain indexing settings. If this parameter is already set, add the name of the new indexer to the list. For example:

    [Indexing]
    IndexerSections=IndexCFS
  4. Create a new section in the CFS configuration file, with the same name that you specified in the IndexerSections parameter. In the new section, set the following parameters:

    IndexerType

    The type of index that you want to index documents into. Set this parameter to CFS.

    Host The host name or IP address of the CFS.
    Port The ACI Port of the CFS.
    SSLConfig (Optional) The name of a section in the CFS configuration file that contains SSL settings for connecting to the other CFS. Set this parameter if the CFS is configured to accept connections over SSL. For more information about the configuration parameters you can use to configure SSL connections, refer to the Connector Framework Server Reference.

    For example:

    [IndexCFS]
    IndexerType=CFS
    Host=cfs.domain.com
    Port=7000
    SSLConfig=SSLOptions
    
    [SSLOptions]
    SSLMethod=TLSV1.2

    For more information about these parameters and other parameters that you can set to customize the indexing process, refer to the Connector Framework Server Reference.

  5. Save and close the configuration file.
